Would y'all recommend something for my SO? She's too lazy to fiddle with any manual settings but is tired of her phone's poor performance with macro/low light. - Small to average size and weight - Battery must last a whole day of snapping pics and taking short video clips (willing to buy 1 spare if needed, but not preferred) - Point and shoot ok, no manual functions needed, going to be using auto mode and macro mode - Good image stabilization, optical zoom, macro focus - Fast power on and picture taking - Will definitely be used to take videos, 720p minimum, autofocus/zoom while filming, decent dim room light quality - Uses miniSD, doesn't require me to buy some brand-exclusive memory card - Viewfinder would be a huge plus but not required - Cute colors (pastels, silver, white) would be a plus but not required - Budget: $250 or less is ideal, but open to spending up to $350.

Virtue posted:Would y'all recommend something for my SO? Thanks for all of your replies. The list was top to bottom in order of importance. She is taking a trip to Korea for a couple of weeks and would like a camera she can carry around all day and not worry about the battery dying. Would a single extra battery with the S110 suffice for a full day's work? And no she didn't mean miniSD. She just didn't want a camera that forces you to buy a special memory card.

Virtue posted:Would y'all recommend something for my SO? I made this post a while back and got some good information (I'm probably gonna buy a s110 for personal use actually) but the gf is looking into the sony a5000 (http://www.amazon.com/Sony-Alpha-Interchangeable-Camera-16-50mm/dp/B00HNJWU3G/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1399019272&sr=8-1&keywords=sony+a5000) because she wants the "flippy lcd thing" to take pictures/video of herself. Is this an alright choice at the price point or is she shooting herself in the foot?

I've been using my S110 quite a bit recently, so much so that I'm starting to think about buying another camera. To be clear I'm firmly in casual hobbyist territory: I've graduated from the auto setting but only just. My two complaints are low light performance (the big one) and zoom on both close and far objects. My problems are probably still user error at this stage but are there any models I should be looking at anyway?
